Day Pass

So I go to the hospital last night to start my second round of chemotherapy. They make me come in the night before so they can hook me up to an IV and start hydrating me with saline. They don’t actually start the chemotherapy until the next day (ie. today).

I was all prepared to start today, but at about 9am, a doctor comes in and tells me that they couldn’t start today because something in my blood was low (hemoglobin, I think). This is a piss-off because I had to drive down from Fredericton for this therapy.

Anyway, I have to go back in late tonight so that they can start the rehydration process all over again. Hopefully everything will be alright to start tomorrow morning. In any case, I have to stay in the hospital another night because of this.
